Start: 7:00 pm

Contributors to Reality Radio—including the Kitchen Sisters, editor John Biewen and coeditor Alexa Dilworth—will be on hand to talk about creative documentary radio and sign copies of the book.  This event is held in conjunction with Hearing Is Believing, a Duke Center for Documentary Studies summer institute.

Start: 7:00 pm

In this theatrical spoof of poetry and poets, the American Poetry Alliance will offer readings by five nationally acclaimed poets:  A. Tad Strange, a French moose warden; Zanzibar “Buck Buck” McFate, the manly poet who writes of chainsaws and scrotums (but not in the same poem); Lester Scoggin, a licensed major appliance service technician from Tallapoosa, Georgia; Dr. Emily Norcross, an extremely tenured professor of women’s studies at Manfrey College; and Dalmatian toadflax, a noxious weed.  The poets will be accompanied by their obnoxious publisher, Nadine Sobolevitch.  And for the opening act, hear John Denver and Peter, Paul and Mary songs performed by Will and Asia.
